It certainly didn't catch my eye when I was
looking for such a link. I
think an explicit "report a problem" link is required. It would go
straight to the info-en queue (or equivalent). If possible, it should
include the critical information (article title and revision id, at
least) in the email automatically, although I'm not sure mailto links
can do that...
Yeah, an express "Report a problem with this article" link would be a
useful start. For the article title and revision ID, that may require
an extension or similar that does some magic. A simple matter of
programming, I'm sure.
